 * Okay. Each page shows posts in a certain category using The Loop. I use query_posts()
   to filter which category to show using The Loop. Here’s the issue: on the Index(
   front) page, it’ll show a preview of the post but on any of the Pages the preview
   is blank. I use the exact same Loop that’s on the Index page, except for query_posts(),
   but I don’t think it makes a difference. Can anyone provide any insight? The 
   URL is [http://www.bizness-geek.com](http://www.bizness-geek.com)
 * Here’s a copy of the code for the Pages:
 * > <?php
   >  if (is_page(‘About’)) { query_posts(“cat=1”); } elseif (is_page(‘Business
   > News’)) { query_posts(“cat=3”); } elseif (is_page(‘Entrepreneurship’)) { query_posts(“
   > cat=4”); } elseif (is_page(‘Life & Money’)) { query_posts(“cat=5”); } elseif(
   > is_page(‘Investing’)) { query_posts(“cat=6”); } elseif (is_page(‘Marketing &
   > Advertising’)) { query_posts(“cat=7”); } elseif (is_page(‘Economics’)) { query_posts(“
   > cat=8”); } elseif (is_page(‘Real Estate’)) { query_posts(“cat=9”); } elseif(
   > is_page(‘Profiles’)) { query_posts(“cat=10”); } ?>
   > //THE LOOP
   >  <?php if (have_posts()) : $odd = true; ?> <div id=”mini-post-wrap”
   > class=”clearfix”> <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?> <div id=”post-
   > <?php the_ID(); ?>” class=”mini-post<?php if ($odd) : echo ‘ odd’; else : echo‘
   > even’; endif; ?>”> <h3 class=”title”>” title=”<?php the_title(); ?>”><?php 
   > the_title(); ?></h3> <div class=”meta clearfix”> <span class=”date-post icon”
   > ><?php the_time(‘F j Y’) ?></span> ” title=”Leave your comment”><?php comments_number(‘
   > No Commented’,’one Commented’,’% Commented’); ?> </div>
   > //CODE USED TO SHOW CONTENT PREVIEW…ALREADY TRIED the_content()
   >  <div class
   > =”entry”> <?php the_content_rss(”, TRUE, ”, 50); ?> </div> ” title=”Continue
   > Reading…”>Continue Reading… </div>
